4 Months!

Charlotte is now 4 months old!

UPDATES:

Charlotte is still flipping over during her sleep, but now she'll sometimes soothe herself back asleep. Our little click beetle (see previous post) still hasn't figured out how to roll back over though.

I'm excited to start her on solids now. When Myla started solids, I remember how fun it was to make her food and see her different facial expressions when she tried them. Hopefully, this will help her sleep longer at night too.

Charlotte is usually laid back and joyful. She definitely lets you know when she's cranky though. She still gets bored easily and can't sit in one area for more than 15 mins. She also has a huge set of lungs like her big sis. I need to invest in more ear plugs. :)

Charlotte and the Very Clumsy Click Beetle

"The Very Clumsy Click Beetle" by Eric Carle is about a young clumsy click beetle who falls onto his back and gets stuck. He has not developed the skills to flip back onto his feet. But with the help of a wise old click beetle and several tries, he learned how to flip back over in the end.

Charlotte has been flipping over onto her back for over a month now. But when this happens during her sleep, she gets startled and cries, which means we have to get up and flip her back over and soothe her back to sleep. Putting up barriers hasn't worked either. She somehow she manages to scoot her way out. Often times she'll end up with her head stuck in the corner of her crib and that wakes her up too. Hope our little click beetle learns how to flip back over soon. :)
